Recipe Notes
When cooking the fish, always keep a watchful eye. Fish meat cooks fast compared to other meats. Cooking it longer than the recommended time might cause a dry taste.
The quick and easy marinate can also work as a simple flavor to add to meats like pork - if you're planning on grilling some soon. Just allot some time in the marinating process. The longer the marinating time, the more flavor it absorbs.
